25
Muscles are attached to bones directly or indirectly or with other muscles with connective tissues such as:
Tendon Aponeurosis
26
- cord-like connective tissue
Tendon
27
- flat sheet CT
Aponeurosis
28
Connect your muscle to bone
Tendon
29
Bone to bone
Ligament
30
- fleshy part of a muscle
Belly
31
Point of attachment to bones:
Origin Insertion
32
the site of attachment w/c in any particular movement remains fixed
Origin
33
- muscle with more than one origin
Head
34
the site that is caused to move
Insertion
35
- muscle with more than one insertion
Slips
36
Eg. Triceps femoris - 3 heads/large muscle at the side of a leg
Origin
37
Eg. Biceps femoris - 1 muscle behind thigh, attached to the helium
Insertion
38
e.g. Biceps femoris Origin: Insertion:
Ilium Tibiofibula
39
- muscle that raises a part
Levator
40
- muscle that lowers a part
Depressor
41
- a muscle that draws toward the midline. (ex. Adductor magnus- adducts thigh & leg)
Adductor
42
- a muscle that draws away from the midline
Abductor
43
- a muscle that bends a part
Flexor
44
- a muscle that extends a part
Extensor
45
- a muscle that rotates a part
Rotator
46
- a muscle that rotates a part
Rotator
47
- a muscle that encircles a part thus regulating its opening
Sphinctor/Constrictor
48
- a muscle that opens a part
Dilator
49
How are muscles named
Location Shape Size Direction of fibers Number or origins Location of attachment Type of motion
50
Parallel
Rectus
51
Transverse
Transversus
52
Muscles work in ____
pairs
53
cause opposite movements - most skeletal muscles work this way (if one relaxes the other contracts)
Antagonists
54
- pairs of muscles that cause harmonious movements
Synergists
55
Muscles work in pairs
Antagonists Synergists
56
The thick filaments and the thin filaments within myofibrils overlap in a structured way, forming units called _____.
Sarcomeres
57
sections of myofibril that are separated from each other by areas of dense material called ___
"Z discs"
58
also described in terms of the bands/zones within which one or both of the two filaments occur.
sarcomeres
59
is a relatively darker area within the sarcomere that extends along the total length of the thick filaments.
"A band"
60
is at the centre of the A band of each sarcomere. As shown below, this is the region in which there are only thick filaments, and no thin filaments
H zone
61
is the region between adjacent A bands, in which there are only thin filaments, and no thick filaments. (Each I band extends across two adjacent sarcomeres.)
I band
62
are represented by the zig-zag lines that form the boundaries between adjacent sarcomeres.
Z discs
63
bundle of myscle fibers
Fasciculus
64
Neurotransmitter
Acetylcholine
65
(ex. Masseter - elevates lower jaw)
Levator
66
(ex. Muscles in blood vessels)
Dilator
67
(ex. Cardiac sphincter in stomach, s ,sphincter in urinary bladder)
Sphinctor/constrictor
68
(ex. Pectoralis -rotates arm)
Rotator
69
(ex. Depressor mandibuli)
Depressor
70
(ex. Dorsalis scapulae -extends arm)
Extensor
